They voted 9-0. Before this Texas case existed(a day ago) this is what we were relying on, and now a major pathway to victory is gone. If anything, I think this is a domino, but in the wrong direction, in that it sets the precedent for SCOTUS to reject any and all election related cases. We have to start planning in the case of TX case being denied.

I thought so too. The actual case regarding the merit is still pending. Injunctive relief is only granted if no other legal options exist. The fact it was 9-0, likely indicates that other legal options exist, so this was procedural. Now, if you see SCOTUS flat out reject a case (not request for injunctive relief) based on the mail in process, that would be the major blow. So far, I have not seen that to be the case here.
